For now, it seems David Hogg and Emma Gonzales receive most of the vitriol--but as Cameron Kaskey and others speak out and are more visible again, look for more of the same.

The good thing is a very large percentage of Americans say, "Hey, wait a minute! I call bullshit! These are just young kids who are trying to create an amazing positive out of such a traumatic event in their lives."

Truth will prevail.

Adding perfect link for the topic from another thread.

1. There has been actual slander and libel

I wonder if some attorney might want to take that up.

3. fair point. if they did, perhaps they'd be seen as less pure? I don't know.

but I am glad they are hanging tough and even giving as good as they get on social media.

10. The parents should sue the NRA and the RW trolls for defamation

Maybe the threat of discovery might make them apoloize and keep their vile mouths shut, but even that is a long shot.

2. Soon they will be demanding their birth certificates

4. These young people have common sense, unlike the deplorables

who attempt to smear them. They will not take it seriously at all. THAT is what we need to defeat the deplorables once and for all. Do not give them the credit, attention, and energy of hate that they thrive on.

5. Right Wing Playbook

Demonize anyone who disagrees with you.

6. They have to lie about the March for Our Lives movement. If they told the truth,

their constituents would realize that the common sense gun control measures that these young people are demanding are also favored by an overwhelming majority of Americans.

They have to demonize these students in order to keep the rwnj base in line.

7. No explanations, no apologies...I think, therefore I am

...when you stand in la verdad, nothing can shake you.

8. Indeed.

The kids will not lose.

9. The right knows their time is up. That they are going to lose big time.

And they are desperate to hold onto their power. I for one am enjoying watching their meltdown over the Florida shooting. Hopefully this is the last time.
